DaveFason Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Hi guys, Now that summer is "officially" over I want to give everyone news on what is going around the shop. Things have been nuts and looking more and more promising each day! New Website : A fellow reefer contacted me about updating my website. I have always been the type to do it all myself until I saw his work. We worked out an agreement and things are looking amazing. I am hoping to have ALL of this finished by the months end. Note, these are not complete, only rough drafts. pagelayout_wide_0902_draft by David Fason, on Flickr pagelayout_quad_0902 by David Fason, on Flickr pagelayout_mini-teaser by David Fason, on Flickr pagelayout_duo - teaser by David Fason, on Flickr Living Art Gallery : I have always wanted to have a reef/planted living art gallery. A few months ago Living Color contracted myself and Robert Du Grenier ( glass blower who designed the Statue of Liberty flame ) to come up with a high end tank. Using glass and my lights. Things have not gone as well as we hoped but we joined forces to push this. I recently went to Vermont and spent five days creating ideas. I lived his life, glass blower/farmer and nailed some insane stuff down. I will be finishing the prototype tanks and will share soon. Think of this, glass rock, tank within a tank, altered coral growth. Here are photos from the trip.

Keep me focused and intuitive. I am currently 100% current with orders ( first time ever!!!!!! ). The office space will have ~ 4-5 tanks set up in the next few months. newofficedecal by David Fason, on Flickr shopwallstart by David Fason, on Flickr tinydrillpress by David Fason, on Flickr newofficecommon1 by David Fason, on Flickr Customer Tank Photos : You guys have been amazing. Getting to share actual tanks photos has been such a huge help and really shows the customer base I have. I have to share some of my favorites.

They have been using a Duo for some time and were impressed. Units should be there way next week and up on the website. InTank is selling large retro kits for the AIO tanks as well. GO BUY THEM! Rapid LED also carries the Tide and Duo for those on the west cost. I have also been working with Innovative Marine, Aquamaxx and hoping UN ( new sponsor ) on a few tank projects. These will be featured for the Living Art projects. Wide Quad : First run is back from the anodizer and will be on the website shortly. The people that already have these have been blown away and I am SO excited. $775 Five Channel Control Royal Blue Blue/Cyan White Lime Violet Hanging Kit Included WIFI Included 52 LEDs 12" x 8" x .75" Interchangeable lids TRUE 30" x 30" spread - Even PAR quadwblackblackhangside by David Fason, on Flickr I want to thank you guys for everything that you do!

Rzalph Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I'm starting a new tank and about to pick up an ATI 4x24. I was wondering what it'd look like anodized black. Glad to see they look AMAZING! I don't have the funds to start off with the hybrid, but I'm pretty sure you'll be seeing my fixture in the not too distant future for some arrays and the black out treatment. ? Link to comment
RobSpeed13 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 That Nano Box Quad Wide though! i was originally looking at two regular quads for the future over my 120G as i'm still working on the build adding a 50G frag tank. Can you quote me a price of two Nano Box Quad Wide Plus M connected to one controller, and also the price of 4 Wides? I know this is going to be pricey but based off the beauty and results of the Tide Plus M i got from you its well worth the Money.. Link to comment

RollaJase Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I like the way the new web design is going Dave, looks awesome without straying too much from the current looks and feel (which I love). I love the new T-Shirts also, do you have them in stock currently? I'd love to add one to the order I need to place for a few new arrays. Link to comment
DaveFason Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Do you have pics of what the brown anodized would look like on the sun power hybrids? I do not. This is a body from a Mini however. tidebrownbirchgoose by David Fason, on Flickr Link to comment
